Subscribe to Alerts

subscribe
Idempotent

Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account (anonymous + BYO cannot persist subscriptions). Supported types: "sec_8k" (8-K filings matching ticker + item codes — e.g. items:["5.02"] = officer change), "polymarket_edge" (Polymarket↔Kalshi cross-venue mispricings — params:{topic:"fed"}), "fred_series" (new FRED observations — params:{series_id:"UNRATE"}). Delivery channels: feed (always on — pull via recent_alerts or GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json), and optionally email (set delivery:{email:"you@x.com"}) or sms (delivery:{sms:"+15551234567"} — phone must be verified at /account first; 10/day cap).

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already cover idempotency, but the description adds substantial behavioral detail: OAuth requirement, supported subscription types with concrete examples, delivery channel behaviors (feed always on, email, SMS with verification and rate cap, webhook with signing secret and auto-disable). This goes well beyond the annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is longer than average due to the tool's complexity, but it is well-structured: core purpose first, then requirements, then supported types, then delivery options. Every sentence earns its place with examples and constraints, making it dense yet scannable.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the description explicitly states the return value and covers critical operational details: webhook secret returned only once, SMS verification and cap, authentication requirements, and even how to pull the feed without subscribing. This provides a complete picture for using the create tool effectively.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The input schema has 100% coverage and detailed parameter descriptions, but the description adds extra semantic value, such as explaining that sec_8k items ["5.02"] means officer change, and clarifying that the feed is always on. This supplements the schema with useful context not present in the structured data.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description begins with a precise action: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream.' It clearly identifies the resource (subscription), the verb (create), and the return value (new subscription id). It also distinguishes from sibling tools like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe by focusing on creation.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides clear context for when to use the tool (proactive monitoring) and prerequisites (OAuth account, verified phone for SMS). It indirectly references alternatives like recent_alerts for pulling the feed, but does not explicitly name alternative tools or state when not to use this tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The set contains several clusters of overlapping tools: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all serve broad data-query purposes, while the six Polymarket-related tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_kalshi_spread) heavily overlap in scope. The detailed descriptions help, but an agent would frequently struggle to choose the correct tool among near-synonyms.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names use snake_case, but the underlying pattern is inconsistent: list_*/get_* for Statbel, ask_* for query routers, noun-heavy names like entity_profile, bet_research, polymarket_edges, and recent_alerts, plus bare verbs like remember, recall, forget, subscribe, unsubscribe. It remains readable, but there is no single predictable verb_noun convention across the set.

Tool Count2/5

At 35 tools, the set exceeds the range where each tool clearly earns its place, and the scope is wildly broad: Belgian statistics, general data lookup, prediction markets, npm dependency checks, memory, subscriptions, llms.txt generation, and AI visibility. A server named 'Statbel Be' carries 31 tools unrelated to that name, which makes the count feel bloated and unfocused.

Completeness2/5

For the Statbel domain implied by the server name, the surface is severely incomplete: list_datasets, get_dataset, list_views, and get_view only return metadata — there is no tool to actually fetch the statistical data values. For the broader Pipeworx data-access domain, coverage is more complete, but the server's stated purpose is under-served and leaves core workflows at a dead end.
